[Adta] Article featuring d/mt in Alternative medicne Mag- on the stands now.

[skdmt2]

There is a very nice article in Alternative Medicine Magazine. It is on the
stands now. I found my copy at Barnes & Noble.

 

 

  The Healthy Palette
Van Gogh wasn't the picture of good health, but new research shows that
creativity promotes well-being. Take a look at how three activities-
painting, dance, and storytelling-help people heal and grow.
BY DEIRDRE SHEVLIN BELL

 

 

This article recognizes the value of Creativity  as used  therapeutically
with different populations. I have just scanned the article but I think that
the section, "Moving Through eating disorders" may be the only section that
actually describes one of the CATs ( in contrast to creative therapy)

 

 This section is, of course about d/mt.

 

For me a plus in the article is that usually dancers are told to give up
their dance/passion but Jill, the patient, was able to transform her "dance'
because we actually worked with it, rather then banish it from her life &
today she uses dance to help others also - a nice story.
